“Food was delicious and piping hot 🔥 The original skillet cheeseburger was juicy and packed with flavor. You can tell all the ingredients are fresh. The owner was very kind and even came by to check on our group. I'll be back soon!“

“This is my go to place 😁“

“The service and food this evening for the 3 of us was wonderful! We came with no reservations but they found a way for us to dine inside and be finished within 1 hour. The steak scharma was wonderful. The humus and bubba gnonoush and garlic spread were wonderful too. I tried the kibbi nyeah. Was good but almost cream like. Not as meaty as I remember from the last time I had it it a few decades ago. It was spiced very mildly as well. They through in a baklava ice cream dish for our trouble. It was amazingly wonderful! Definitely coming back!“

“Pretty good, but kind of overrated.“

“The food is great but the customer service sucks! Please train your employees properly. Don’t hire anti-social people!“

“Dined in for lunch as a group of 20 plus friends. Wonderful food, the meat soup filled 10 bowls, the special tea also filled 10 cups, each dish was large and ample for sharing.

All dishes we ordered tasted fantastic. Can’t recommend it enough.“

“Yes and yes! Great menu! Will be back!“

“Absolutely loved this place! The Turkish breakfast platter was amazing, everything was so fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The restaurant has such a warm, homey feeling, and the owners were genuinely so kind and welcoming. You can really feel the love and hospitality in everything they do. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to next time I’m in California ❤“

“The best place to try Bosnian food! I can’t pick one favorite, from cevapi to pizza to pita , this food taste like homemade. All employees are nice and friendly, but the owner is an amazing human being, so humble and approachable, honest and relatable, love chatting with him every time we visit Cali, which is usually 2-3 times a year and we make sure we eat lunch and dinner at Sofra Urbana every day. See you soon! Can’t wait for the most delicious Bosnian food on the west side of the United States.“

“Eileen was very helpful and responsive. She gave us her recommendations, was very kind. The store itself was really clean, including their bathroom. We ordered takeout but came out fresh and fast!! The mozzarella sticks are back and awesome!“

“Food was fantastic! Milad, gave us great service. As someone who has had plenty of Koobideh in Dallas & Houston, TX and even Dubai, hands down the best Koobideh you can find in the States! Will be coming back soon for the awesome food and service!!!!“

“The guy who makes the Manti and the Samsa wasn’t there. That made me a little sad but our food came out really fast. It was a very homely atmosphere. The food literally almost caused me to ascend. The food was incredible. I have no complaints.“

“Why did I give so many stars you may ask? Well let's put it this way, are you looking for a place to snuggle with your family or simply hang out a bit with friends for some warm pizza or a freshly made cheeseburger? Look no further WOW! AMAZING homemade style food! If your looking for a warmth service you got it! If your looking for freshness you got it! If your looking for a nice smiley service, you got it! You won't regret it. I had a cheeseburger with a smile served and their famous sugar cane water. Superb. I also had a Chai tea. Delicately Hot and I warmed my hands up as I sipped away and day dreamed. Try this place out, its very peaceful here. You will not regret it a bit. Money well spent here.
P.S. NO RESTROOMS. NEXT DOOR NOORANI THERE IS A RESTROOM.“

“Okay, so the food was seriously good. The chicken was moist, crispy, and super well-seasoned. You could tell it was really good quality Halal chicken. The french fries were very good, I'd go back just for them. Now, the service was pretty slow and not great because there was only one person working. She was mostly in the kitchen, so the front wasn't really being attended to. The dining area itself was quiet, not super clean, but there is an outdoor seating spot. Still, the food definitely made up for the downsides.“

“Great atmosphere, super clean , food was hot, portioned and presented well. Austin was awesome, amicable, a great listener, thoughtful , helpful and I didn’t order a drink and he offered a cup of iced water while I waited for my food.“

“Hidden gem 💎 ✨. Amazing authentic Persian food that just getting better by every bite . Very nice staff friendly and fast . I was amazed by taste of the koobide and quality rice . Also I got a tahdig and ghorme Sabzi appetizer which felt like home cooking .amazing job . Thank you and I will be back very very soon“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I visited Papa K in California and it was such a great experience! The Egyptian food is absolutely delicious – authentic, flavorful, and feels just like home. 😋 The portions are very generous, and the prices are really affordable, which makes it even better. The service was excellent; the staff were so kind, welcoming, and always smiling, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for real Egyptian cuisine. I’ll definitely be back! ♥️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ زرت مطعم Papa K في كاليفورنيا وكانت تجربة أكثر من رائعة! الأكل المصري عندهم لذيذ جدًا – طعمه أصيل ومليان نكهات وكأنك في مصر بالظبط. 😋 كمان كميات الأكل كبيرة جدًا والأسعار مناسبة وفي متناول اليد، وده بيخلي التجربة أحلى وأحلى. الخدمة ممتازة؛ الموظفين في منتهى اللطف والترحاب، ودايمًا بيستقبلوا بابتسامة، وده بيخلي الجو دافي ومريح. بجد أنصح أي حد عايز يجرب الأكل المصري الأصيل إنه يزور المكان، وأنا أكيد هرجع تاني ♥️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

The food and service are excellent in every sense of the word. The bread and baklava were made fresh! The Turkish Delights were phenomenal. The owner and staff went to great lengths to make us feel comfortable and welcome, explaining the menu items in detail. We are so excited to have come across this gem!!! It is the type of culinary and cultural experience that my husband and I treasure. We will be coming again soon, both with and without friends!

“This savory food fills the tummy with comfort and feeds the soul with pleasure clare“

“Delighted by my midday visit to Urban Punjab in garden grove for a lunch at 3 PM—serendipity in its timing as they were open and welcoming. Tucked away in a modest shopping center that also boasts a superb shawarma joint, this place is a hidden treasure. The tandoori chicken and dal makhani I savored transported my taste buds straight to the streets of Delhi with their authentic, extraordinary flavors. The lacha paratha? Simply genius. Service was extraordinary, matched by the unique touch of serving drinks in metal, regal glasses that elevate the dining experience to one of noble indulgence. Having the pleasure of meeting both owners, their dedication was evident in every aspect. I'm looking forward to a return visit with loved ones in tow, ready to embark on a culinary expedition through their entire menu. Heartfelt thanks to Urban Punjab for a five-star experience.“

“Excellent donar, burek and baklava. Of course the coffee is great too.“

“Was a Hot date night tonight 😜 So thought we would try Masala Indian and wow… next level 🔥 Tried a number of curries and every single one was spot on 👌 The garlic naan 🤤 unreal… and the mango lassi… don’t even get me started 😍 So good having a quality Indian spot just around the corner from home when we’re in town ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ all day We’ll definitely be back 💯 The Teeth Man Team“

“First time trying Dave’s Hot Chicken, and I was impressed. The food was delicious, but what really stood out was the customer service. Destiny at the front counter was friendly, professional, and explained the menu in detail. She made sure my order was correct, offered drink and shake options, and greeted every customer who walked in while helping me. That level of attention and hospitality is what keeps people coming back. Great food, even better service. Keep up the awesome work!“

“Best chicken and best sauce!“

“Had dinner here and I can say, it was one of the best Korean bbqs I’ve had. Service was impeccable. Food was amazing. Coming from Washington state, I’ve had my fair share of Korean bbq and this was one of the best. We got the premium package and did not regret it. Will definitely be back.“

“Excellent service and food“

“This is the best grilled fish I ate since I came to California in 2000 it's even better than San Pedro fish markets. Fresh fish everyday. Super nice customer service and kind staff. Clean place. I recommend it to all fish lovers.“

The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, making it a perfect place to relax and spend quality time together. We had a lovely time as a family and will definitely be coming back again.“

“Best fried chicken ever! Combination of spices and coleslaw makes your mouth water!“

“Great dinner, our server was excellent! Loved the guitarist.“

“I first ate at The Halal Guys on the street in Manhattan and immediately counted it as one of my go to places to eat. The red sauce adds the right kick to the combo platter, which is almost a two-meal entree. Great portions, great flavors, and worth the fair price.“

“Excellent Indian food“

“Went today with lovey for lunch... OMG you can taste the quality. Lovey had a pattymelt with zucchini I had a sourdough burger with cheddar jalapeno poppers. Nothing was greasy staff was so pleasant would recomend over any chain place yes even in and wait. Can't wait for our next visit Cheers“

“Quality meat that’s not frozen. Good ventilation. Prompt service.“

“One of the most sub standard experience! The food had all the same curry base, made from canned ingredients. The staff was unhelpful and did not care at all. The seating is narrow and cheap. The portion size of s horrible. The taste of the food is awe filling because it’s probably microwaved rather than cooked properly. Horrible experience. Stay away! There are better Indian restaurants.“
